    Goodbye 225 Trophy, hello AMG

    Goodbye 225 Trophy, hello AMG

    Yeah VXR8 or as I tell most who ask a Holden Commodore lol just confuses people. I'm taking it too the EFi Rolling road day on Sunday hoping for around 600hp/600lb/ft wish I had the Auto sometimes but they're nowhere near as nice as any euro car's auto box lol

    195 50 15 R888R £75 on tyre leader

    Tempted for a spare set lol I used Tyre leader for my last set of the older 888 only problem was delivery can either be quick or painfully slow lol almost thought I was gonna be getting ripped off and no tyres turning up last time, but they did eventually.

    Goodbye 225 Trophy, hello AMG

    Lovely car welcome too the big v8 club haha I know the 'pain' at junctions with a supercharged 6.0 myself it's a struggle too pull off love the fact with these types of car you don't need to change down to overtake stuff and cruising is awesome haha mine's creeping up from around 13mpg getting...

    Lightened flywheel

    Fuel I don't mind lol my daily does 13mpg lol get better hammering my clio round Oulton doesn't drop lower than 19mpg. Rev's dropping shouldn't bother me if I can get the hang of heel and tow.

    Lightened flywheel

    Something else too add to the shipping list lol. Fancy one for my track car anything too help it rev a little bit more freely. What's the negatives too the lighter flywheel? Just a standard engine no boost or ITB (if anything would only ever end up on bodies)

    172/182 Roll Cage... How much did you pay?

    Looks very nice with all the interior left in it, bet it doesn't sound half as bad as a fully stripped one and probably not much weight in it either

    Suspension possibly bottoming out.

    Yeah I emailed BC and I can order a set of their spanners. I'm not sure about the damper rod though Steve.

    Suspension possibly bottoming out.

    Found a little spot/egg shape in the passenger wing (if you imagine directly under where the fuse box would be sat in the engine bay area) looks like it has been rubbing and also bent the bumper bracket out the way as that had also looked like it had a slight rub on it, Gonna put gaffer tape...

    minimum pad material left for track use.

    Thanks for the info @JamesBryan I was surprised too @MarkX I think I have done maybe 3 days on these pads and I only run normal Brembo HC disc's not the grooved MAX one's as i suspect they would be going down quicker lol but i'm not too heavy on the brakes (i don't think anyway) and it's always...

    R.S.250 cup - New car

    That's a lovely car only thing I'm not a massive fan of is the wheels, other than that its spot on like everyone has said really suits the red.

    minimum pad material left for track use.

    Cheers, I think I'll have a spare set soon just too keep in the van anyway so I'll run them down as low as I can before I swap them out. Fancied trying the DS1.11 or DS3000 next but it's one of them I'm used to the RC6 now and if it ain't broken don't fix it lol.

    minimum pad material left for track use.

    Is there a minimum recommended to change over to new pads I was just wondering ad my CL RC6 are about half worn (can't remember exactly how much was on them new but look about half maybe a little more) and was wondering how low before they should be changed. I changed my last set as I had a...

    tarc castle combe report

    Don't suppose you get into the pits and are able too check the cars out or is it a closed pits and you can only spectate as you would with a normal event as opposed to a track day where you can wonder round and say hello to people.

    Elf oil on eBay...

    @oilman should be able too answer your question best. Although if it's a standard road car I don't see a problem with using the recommended Elf stuff. I use the Fusch titan race stuff in my track 172 that was recommended by Oil Man but I change my oil fairly regular myself anyway being mainly a...

    Track Tyres - Feedback and Recommendations

    What would you recommend for a ring trip? If I was going to drive there have a day or two on track and drive home. If not I'll trailer it and stick my spare sets of wheels in the van and just use what suits the weather when I'm there. Was just thinking of using my PS3 as they're a decent road...

    Anti roll bars

    Had too do this today as mine is rubbing on passenger side I thought the suspension was bottoming out. Bent the bracket out the way and also looks directly under where the fuse box is there is a little dimple that looks like the tyre had rubbed it a few time so hoping that's my rubbing issue and...
